Last week’s City Council hearing was an epic fiasco, as members burned hours in mindless back-and-forth with city officials and then skipped out as the public got a chance at the mic — basically ignoring the regular New Yorkers who’d come out to testify to their serious personal harm.

who → burn → harm
An e-bike ran down Tonette Rivera of Brooklyn when she was 20 weeks pregnant; she spent two months in the hospital, gave birth prematurely and then saw her infant son spend three months in a neonatal ICU — and, on top of the medical horror, the calamity crushed her financially.

asserted
mayor → ’ → March
To be clear, it’s not just the sacred status of “the undocumented” that leaves the pols so afraid to act: The elitist anti-car lobby has convinced itself that e-bikes are a huge win for the cause, so it opposes any and all reasonable regulation.
asserted
it → ’ → any
Start your day with all you need to know
Morning Report delivers the latest news, videos, photos and more.
asserted
Report → start → news
Yet that’s the obvious answer: Have the state require licensing and insurance for e-bike drivers, while the state or city can mandate registration and license plates for the bikes themselves.
